Bangs.

I am currently in dire need of a haircut but I'm having trouble deciding whether or not I should try something new. I have been cutting my hair exactly the same way since I was in high school...I'm not sure why, because I've never been in love with it.

My husband has been telling me I need to try bangs for quite some time now but I never have the guts for it. Plus, I think I have the wrong face shape/facial features for bangs, but I really don't know.

I've been browsing Pintrest for some hair inspiration although it's been a lot harder then I thought it would be! It seems like I always see people and pictures of hair styles that I like, but every time I deliberately search for it I can't find anything.

My go-to is UKHairdressers.com. Don't be scared by some of the weird make-up and hair colors--there are a lot of cute ones too, and they're categorized (long, short, etc). I always go to the "Top 40" to see what's new--http://www.ukhairdressers.com/style/hairstyle_charts.asp (#14 is one of my regular cuts...)

ooh bangs would be so fun! You should try it, just to do something different. What I always tell myself is that thankfully hair grows back! :) I'm in desperate need of a hair cut too. My husband likes that I've been growing it out so maybe I'll just get a trim.

You would look great in bangs. I was contemplating them lately too bc I am trying my hardest to grow out my hair but am seriously bored and want a change. BUT the last time I had bangs they ended up being pinned back a lot. If you don't mind the feeling of hair on your face then go for it! To me they felt uncomfortable (but it was also summer, so winter it might be better).

Also, don't be scared, if for some reason you hate them (I dont think you will) there are so many ways to pin them back (twists, braids). Just go to someone who knows what they are doing to cut them!

What wonderful inspiration! I've basically had bangs since birth. Not having them makes me feel too self-aware about my forehead. I've always cut mine myself, but if you're nervous it might be better to go to a professional. I've always had good luck with student saloons (what can I say, I'm a cheapskate).

Do the bangs! I've been looking at those same pictures for weeks wondering if I should cut mine back. I had straight-across bangs last winter and loved them! When the warmer weather came I found it harder to keep them looking nice and clean..so if you're going to do it, now's the time! ;)

Complete opposite here...had bangs for the past 20 years-because I hate my forehaed...but am contemplating growing them out now. I hate that stage when they are too short to pull or pin back- but too long to wear down. Very annoying. aND THEY ARE very HIGH MAINTAINENCE. Merry Christmas!!!
